TEXAS ROSE HORSE PARK
The Texas Rose Horse Park (Texas Rose Horse Park | East Texas' Premier Horse Park) in Tyler is a 1700-acre equestrian center. We will be attending a Hunter/Jumper show to photograph the power, grace, and beauty of horses competing in a show ring. This will be like going to the Summer Olympics but without the hassle of going to all the way Paris, France. The show begins as early as 7:30 am and continues throughout the day in several different rings (see website above for schedules) so there will be plenty of action to keep you busy. There may be the possibility of eating lunch together on site but if not, we can find a suitable location nearby.
Directions: Drive east on US-80 and I-20 to Smith County. Take exit 548 from I-20 E to 14078 State Hwy110N, Tyler, TX.
